Drama Romance Biographical War

Love Is a Many-Splendored Thing is a 1955 Deluxe color American romantic drama in CinemaScope. Set in 1949–50 in Hong Kong, it tells the story of a married, but separated, American reporter Mark Elliot (played by William Holden), who falls in love with a Eurasian doctor originally from China, Han Suyin (played by Jennifer Jones), only to encounter prejudice from her family and from Hong Kong society. The film was adapted by John Patrick from the 1952 autobiographical novel A Many-Splendoured Thing by Han Suyin. The film was directed by Henry King. The film later inspired a television soap opera in 1967, though without the hyphen in the show's title.
